Catch Up

| October 17, 2012

I’ve been gone for almost a month? I have reasons. There was this manuscript. It’s different than anything I’ve written before, and I’ve targeted a different publisher. I saw that this publisher was looking for submissions, and a story exploded full-blown in my head. That rarely happens to me, and even better, I didn’t have […]

Monday, Monday

| April 30, 2012

What a lovely weekend. We’ve done all we can do on the renovation so I didn’t feel guilty about not working on it. I read a book for a friend on Friday and Saturday. Also on Saturday, another friend called with this question. “I have tickets for the matinee of Les Mis tomorrow. Do you […]
